The Miami Dolphins are doing their best not to telegraph the team's big move in this week's NFL draft.

Monday was occupied by a fair amount of mudslinging and debate around where Miami would go at No. 8 overall. Owner Stephen Ross finally went on the record to dismiss theories that he's meddling in front-office affairs and forcing the team to consider Texas A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

It's no sure bet Tannehill falls to the Dolphins, but if he's available, one league executive believes Miami won't pass him up.
